Just not sure what! :) That said since we have been housebound for a few days (I live in IL) I've made great use of CBS.com and caught up on all the random TV I'd missed since we were on vacation and then sick! I think that's my silver lining for the moment! Love the cat picture!

It was so cold here, -16 without the wind chill, that our dog went out to do her thing and her yard brownie froze straight up in the yard like a finger.

I tolerate the cold here in Oklahoma but will continue to complain because I'm an old fart now and my bones ache with this cold.

You live in the Ozarks, for Pete's sake!<br /><br />We've been walking out to get our mail these days (masochists that we are) and it was 6 above zero this morning. Both of us commented that it actually felt WARM compared to the -10 or -15 the past two days. 'Course, there was no wind this morning which makes a BIG difference.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-11270227633317870992015-01-08T12:13:28.568-06:002015-01-08T12:13:28.568-06:00Heh!

So after we moved back to NE Okla, I'd see fellow employees in big Alaska-type parkas when it wasn't even COLD yet.

I have a line that goes to the barn but it tends to be the first one to freeze when the temps get below zero so I put a tap on it in the basement and drain it out when they are predicting temps like we are getting now. <br /><br />I will more than likely have to turn it on this afternoon and refill all the tanks.<br /><br />I did notice yesterday one of the yearling lambs has taken to pulling the tank heater out of their tank so I tied it in better. Hope it worked :)<br />PioneerPreppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09269878017447335944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-37533875413569951772015-01-08T09:00:20.334-06:002015-01-08T09:00:20.334-06:00If the climate keeps changing, you may need a heat...If the climate keeps changing, you may need a heated water bucket. Of course, you still have to schlep 5 gal buckets of water out to fill them. But it can be cold water....does that help?
